Business Sense: Painting the Tape

By June 5th, 2008

From BNET Business Dictionary, painting the tape is:

an illegal practice in which traders break large orders into smaller units in order to give the illusion of heavy buying activity. This encourages investors to buy, and the traders then sell as the price of the stock goes up.

Do you paint the tape? ^-^
